Asians are (usually) good academically, because they STUDIED and TRIED IN SCHOOL.

You obviously don't.

Hate Math?

The only way to be good at maths, is to practice... alot. Unless you have some problems with understanding the concept of it, then go ask your teacher or something.

Well, I'd advise you to develop a VERY good grasp over the basic concepts and formulas in the chapters/lessons in your syllabus. I've seen people pound away at sums day and night, forgoing dinner and sleep for weeks, and not performing all that well on the tests.

1. You need to know the identities, formulas perfectly, like the back of yer hand. Especially in Trigonometry, Algebra etc. Go beyond just 'knowing' them. If possible, you should try testing them out on paper in different situations.

2. This might be the hardest part, but you'll have to develop an interest in Math if you really want to do well. Try to pay attention in class, regardless of how boring your Math teacher may be. You might be thinking 'When will I ever need this?'. Well, frankly, you probably wont need 3/4th of what you learn in Math, but definitely helps build up your logical and reasoning abilities. A useful tool in today's world.

Don't be afraid to ask questions in class!

3. You need to study 'smart'. Dont just waste your time practicing sums you already know. Separate a lesson into categories (according to the type of sums involved), and make sure you've practiced atleast 2 hard, 2 medium and 2 easy sums from each category before a test. At the end of the day, theres no substitute for hard work.

4. Excess practice sometimes makes your mind solve problems a little too mechanically. It becomes like a sort of reflex. You begin writing before you even finish reading the question. This is bad. Think and then write. Questions may have devious little traps and twists woven into them.

5. Lastly, whenever in doubt whilst taking a test, the first thing you should do is re-read the question.

6. Units! Always remember to convert those cheeky bastards correctly.

Hope that helps! And I'm Asian too

(Indian to be specific)
